    Food was excellent. Prices on the high end but portions were generous. Two people shared the whole branzino which was perfectly cooked. It came with a salad and veggies. Some rice would have rounded out the meal nicely. We also shared a large arugula salad with pears and walnuts. Service was great until we needed our check which took way too long.

    Food is creative and delicious. The service was "cold." There could have been more interaction. Never came over to see if everything is OK which is pretty standard these days.

    We popped in on Valentine's Day for a pre-theater dinner at a high-top and everything was perfect. We got the tzatziki, a greek salad, and skirt steak. All was delicious and they were able to accommodate our quick time frame. Can't wait to go back!

    So many Mediterranean choices in NYC, make Lokal a choice for when you are uptown. Salmon wrapped in grape leaves! Never saw this and it is delicious. Best Zucchini pancakes and the Baklava is fresh and delicious!

    I had an exceptional dining experience here! As a health-conscious individual, I appreciated the customizable menu options. I opted for the Branzino fillet, modified to suit my preferences - no oil, extra veggies (broccoli and cauliflower), and a fresh salad. It was perfection! My family enjoyed their orders too - skirt steak, octopus, falafel with arugula, and desserts. The drinks were also a hit! I'm impressed by the flexibility and quality of the menu. I'll definitely be back for more!

    Two of us had lunch at Lokal today. Food was excellent and portions were generous. We shared 2 mezes (cheese pastry ("cigars") and zucchini fritters as well as a nice salad. Bread was also very good. Waitress was very helpful, made good recommendations, and kept filling our water glasses. We would definitely return. Good place for lunch near American Museum of Natural History.

    Delicious food with excellent service. Great place for a Monday night with friends, as it is quiet. Have dined here a number of times and Lokal never disappoints.
